Same energy as Verhoeven being bowled over with surprise that people didn't understand the subtext that people being able to be nude coeds without lasciviousness going on meant everyone was Hitler
The importance of specific ideology to fascism is rly overstated
Expand on that.
No matter how many epic dystopia simulators people make, the same thing will happen.
I've read your original comment like 6 times and it sounds like you're saying the most "in your face" clue that Starship was about fascism was that they were able to take coed showers without it being a big deal? But that doesn't make sense so I'm sure that's not it. But I can't figure out how to read it any other way
It's not that they're taking coed showers without it being a big deal, it's that they were a bunch of naked young adults in their physical primes and the only thing they're horny for is war.
